Château Suduiraut
Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend
Sauternes, Graves, Bordeaux, France
Tasted blind. Dark gold and as heavy as oil as it rolls around in the glass. Notes of apricot and spice, some brown sugar, some sautéed pears and oranges, and a little white stone. Heavy in the mouth. A bit heated and medicinal. Perfectly paired with Grand Marnier soufflés. Great end to a wonderful evening. Thanks Stan!

Syrupy and (cloyingly) sweet without quite the acidity needed to be enjoyed for more than a few sips. Superb high tone perfume will likely make this worth revisiting in a few years as the sugars mellow.

Taken from this downright awesome vintage in Sauternes, the 2005 Château Suduiraut shows ripe tropical fruits that meld with bananas foster and vanilla creme flavors. The palate is seamless and seductive, showing a great combination of weight, verve, and length. The texture is downright pillowy. Marzipan and Meyer lemon creme brulee mingle with apricots and roasted pineapple tones on the palate. The massive length is truly thrilling. Complex and downright delicious to savor right now, the 2005 Château Suduiraut is a resounding success that is singing right now an will continue to belt on for the next fifteen to twenty years. Drink 2020-2040- 97

Beautiful end to a beautiful video dinner party. Honey, flowers, nutty, zesty, ample mouth watering acid, looong finish. Lovely.

Disaster for reds but great vintage for Sauternes. I always found 01, 05, 10 a bit heavy to drink now but this is refreshing and has beautiful acidity. One of my favorite Sauternes vintages.
